Vegas doesn’t trust the bengals yet either…Deebo-less 49ers are a mediocre at best team that is now 0-3 in a 3 game stretch. Don’t think the non buffalo fan bettors are taking as much out of the niners bengals game as we are. it’s possible they’re just starting out on an epic run but it’s possible they aren’t too

I mean not as much as you think…I could absolutely see the bills scoring 30+ and you can’t I think that’s the only real difference. nobody is saying we’re gonna completely shut them down on offense that I’ve seen but I do think we can get a few stops both teams are completely different than last year

Idk where that genius Lou a has been all season…that joe burrow injury must’ve really effected the defense lol. They’ve been bad more than they’ve been good. have you only watched them play today? They are 29th in the league in rushing yards per game. I feel like your bet comes down to ‘im betting they’re going to go on a run’ but it’s just as likely that this game was a one off against a team in a slump to me seeing as they’ve had one good game. I’m not saying you’re definitely going to be wrong, it’s just a bit riskier than you think is all I’m trying to say lol if SF wasn’t marching up and down the field and shooting themselves in the foot with rookie mistake type turnovers I might feel a bit different and call it 60/40 but that’s a SF offense with an inexperienced qb missing a huge offensive piece and they racked up a ton of yards still. I didn’t gain any additional faith in the cincy defense that game. It’s quite possible the bills score 30+ on them.

Haha sounds like you’ve got a personal investment on the line and are trying to convince yourself you made the right call. They may win,they may lose, but I think it’s far from the slam dunk that you think it is. Bengals will certainly score points though I don’t think anyone is arguing that. it’s not so much overrating what the bengals are capable of as it is underrating what the bills are imo and you are putting far too much stock in a game from last season. Cincy was one of the best defenses in the league last year and this year they haven’t been nearly as good. By pretty much any advanced metric, the TB defense is better than cincy’s and we moved the ball quite well against them. SF is a mess with purdy and no Deebo, they are a sub .500 team without a doubt. This isn’t like the bengals went out and stymied the 2007 pats like you’re making it sound 😂. Despite that SF just had a few boneheaded turnovers…they racked up 460 yards.

I mean it’s pretty likely the guy with the best qb stats is gonna be on the best team but it doesn’t always have to be true. Looking at the previous winners it’s not like they passed guys up because they didn’t have the regular season win total im not disagreeing with your final paragraph at all I think that has a pretty decent chance of happening though. The defense being not great actually kind of helps him…he’s gonna be in a lot of shootouts. the chiefs have had a fundamental shift where they’ve been winning mostly with defense so far which has shaken things up

Cincy isn’t the same team as last year either…they lost Jessie bates who was a huge piece on defense SF isn’t much of an offense without Deebo… I don’t think there’s much we can extrapolate out of the bengals win over SF on the defensive side. Our oline is improved from last year also, it’s really delayed blitzes/mixing up responsibilities that has been killing us which I think will get sorted over time. Last year saffold and brown just got dominated pretty much all season long. we’re better at running the football than last season as well. We’ve got extra time to prepare also. I think it’s gonna be a coin flip type game

I watch our coaching and there’s plenty of decisions you can second guess for sure, but you could say that about plenty of other top coaches also. We’re acting like a lot of these inconsistency issues are unique to us and it is very much not the case there is probably a forum post or two or ten on every single teams message board criticizing their coaches right now 😂

I really don’t think win/loss matters a whole lot assuming the team looks like a contender. It’s pretty much a stats only award which has Allen in the thick of it. It’s a flavor of the week thing who the ‘favorite’ is this early in the season and josh/the bills deservedly won’t be the flavor of the week for awhile after blowing that pats game I thought mahomes had a huge edge with teams like the broncos left on the schedule but he stumbled today.

Lol I really think this is mostly imaginary in the more pessimist fans heads. I don’t see a lot of josh Allen defenders saying he’s perfect and can do no wrong, but I see a lot of people saying ‘why does everyone think josh can do no wrong’ haha the dude absolutely has flaws but all the mvp candidates have fallen on their face numerous times this season is the point. If we’re going to nitpick josh not showing up for 60 minutes every game, that level of criticism has to be applied to all others also up for the award. none of these guys are perfect, they are all missing reads and not setting protections right occasionally and so on

Football is rarely perfectly linear on offense quarter to quarter…I don’t really know why anyone would completely discount late game touchdowns like that. it’s pretty often that it takes time for an offense to adapt and they start scoring late and win the game . 25 points is 25 points, that would have beat the patriots by at least 4 in any other game they played this year

I’m convinced no one watches any non bills games all season lol SF has been struggling for weeks now, cincy beating them doesn’t mean they’re some unbeatable juggernaut. philly has never really ran away with a game all year

Supposedly he needs wrist surgery and will be out about two months

I’m afraid that now that they lost nick Bolton they’re just not a great team. The defense was anchoring their team this year I guess someone having to lose between kc and Miami isn’t the end of the world though

We’d be 7-1 if we had one of Milano/jones/tre white/healthy von miller all season imo

A lot of it was bad SF offense too…I have no clue what will happen next week lol should be a shootout

The browns loss was the biggest non chiefs loss that happened all day imo. They could be trouble for us

I wouldn’t bet on it either but it seems a lot more possible than it did a week ago. Chiefs defense looks like it took a huge shot losing nick Bolton their offense has been shaky most of the year but the defense was brutalizing people

That’s a massive loss for mahomes’ mvp chances…one of the worst defenses came off his schedule and he didn’t do anything good against them statistically. Idk on the 1 seed I think it’s wiiiide open this year. And even so kc not playing every game at arrowhead would be a welcome change if possible

Purdy is a fraud and I feel like everyone has just known this and pretended it’s not true because it’s a fun story lol

Why do you care about seeding vs division leaders if we are not that good like you say…should be wildcard teams you are looking at as Miami winning the division would be a foregone conclusion. Don’t really understand what you’re goin for here

Rushing as in physically trying to get to the qb? Lol the niners pass rush has been nonexistent until the play where I was typing this of course 😂

The teams above us in the standings are pit/cleveland. Our playoff odds are likely to improve today

Thumbs up for wordplay not Kirk being injured lol

Sarcasm is very hard to detect around these parts 😂. There are probably 5 people saying the same thing you just said in a non sarcastic way right now

By this criteria the dolphins were unstoppable against us until we promptly stopped them immediately after lol
